Dr. Montessori encourages learning from peers in part by using three-year age groupings. Panda Bilingual Daycare creates the mixed age group environment to help children learn from each other. In our multi-age classrooms the older learners become sensitive to the needs of others and have role models that express concern and engage in mutual help. Younger learners often learn from observing others silently and intently. “In doing this they absorb much more than it seems, and are already preparing themselves for more active social observed" Dr. Montessori.

Panda Bilingual Daycare believes trust is a basic need that must be nurtured in the young child. Our teachers focus on establishing a relationship with your baby that is nurturing and creates the essential trust that her needs will be met. Our classrooms are comforting, warm, and nurturing to support safe discovery of the world as your child explores the environment. The Infant classrooms serves 7 children ranging from 3 months to 15 months of age. The teacher/child ratio is 2:7.

Our toddler I classroom serves 9 children from 15 months to 30 months. The teacher/child ratio is 2:9. Toddlers are developing language and providing an environment where both English and Mandarin are spoken supports children in development of both languages.
Toddlers are beginning to show interest in their peers and much of their interactions are efforts to communicate and play with others. They are learning how to approach another child, how to take turns, how to communicate and how to balance their needs with those of others. It is a magical and often messy time, full of joy and sometimes tears!

Panda Bilingual Daycare has one Toddler II/Preschool classroom serving 9 children age 2.6 years old to kindergarten entry. The educator/child ratio remains 2:9. Our skilled teachers combine Montessori tenets and materials with modern understanding of child development in a curriculum designed to actively engage each child in developmentally age appropriate activities exploring the content areas of literacy, mathematics, science, social studies, the arts and technology.
